There are things we can reasonably do something about in a reasonable time period.
There are things we cannot (as it sits right now) without killing large numbers of people and possibly ending civilization as we know it.
What might happen isn't as important as what will happen. This isn't necessarily evading the problem but it's also inexcusable to not make the changes we can. Wasting non renewable fossil fuels and the amount of litter and pollution we are producing are horrible no matter the ultimate reality of climate change (which I maintain is poorly understood and over-hyped right now).
There are real problems that are well understood we aren't doing anything about while wringing our hands about that which we practically can't at this juncture.
